New gene therapy reverses heart failure effects in animals, human trials pending
A new study using gene therapy from the University of Utah reversed the impact of heart failure in pigs. Can it work on humans?
Heart failure is reversed with new gene therapy in animal study: ‘Unprecedented recovery’
Heart failure has historically been irreversible, but a new study suggests that could change. At the University of Utah, scientists used a new gene therapy that reversed heart failure in animals.
Gene therapy reverses heart failure in new trials
In a new study, failing hearts nearly returned to full function in laboratory pigs after they received an experimental gene therapy.
New gene therapy found to reverse heart failure effects in large animals
Researchers found a genetic therapy that could be used to reverse heart failure. A recent study found that it worked on large animals.
Gene Therapy Reverses Effects of Heart Failure and Restores Heart Function in Minipigs
Researchers suggest an application to FDA may be made within the next 12 months, requesting approval to carry out a human clinical trial with the gene therapy.
Cure for heart failure on horizon after scientists cure pigs with gene therapy
A cure for heart failure could be on the horizon after scientists inserted a gene into ailing pigs, allowing their hearts to pump blood at normal levels again. Researchers at the University of Utah want to begin human trials next year,
Promising gene therapy could transform heart failure treatment
A new gene therapy can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model.
New Gene Therapy Reverses Heart Failure in Large Animal Model
The therapy increases the amount of blood the heart can pump and dramatically improves survival, in what a paper describing the results calls “an unprecedented recovery of cardiac function.”
Gene Therapy Reverses Heart Failure in Pig Trials
TUESDAY, Dec. 10, 2024 (HealthDay News) -- Failing hearts nearly returned to full function in laboratory pigs after they received an experimental gene therapy. New research shows the gene therapy didn’t just prevent heart failure from worsening in four lab pigs, but actually prompted hearts to repair and grow stronger.
Experimental Gene Therapy Reverses Heart Failure in Large Animal Model
A new gene therapy can reverse the effects of heart failure and restore heart function in a large animal model.

Gene therapy could bring a quantum leap in cardiology
The treatment works by ramping up production of a protein called cBIN1, the levels of which fall precipitously when hearts fail. Normalizing cBIN1 levels, Hong says, may “allow damaged heart ...
